When building, you can only place walls on a preset grid. This pack adds a new lot type, Tiny Home Residential, and has three tiers that are dependent on how many floor tiles the home has. While Parenthood might not be your thing, the “Tiny Living” stuff pack is definitely a fun edition for everyone. Plus, it adds a level of realism that every family needs. I enjoy when my Sims have chores to do because it adds a lifelike quality that the Sims also have to do their laundry. Laundry day adds laundry to “The Sims 4.” There are hampers, washers, dryers, a wash bucket and a clothing line for your Sims to do their laundry.
In addition to "Parenthood," I recommend that simmers buy and download “The Sims 4: Laundry Day” stuff. The character value mechanic adds more depth to teen, child and toddler Sims and gameplay activities for Sims families to do together. Parent Sims can encourage or discipline their children for behaviors accordingly and can affect their character values such as manners, responsibility, empathy, conflict resolution and emotional control. "Parenthood" introduces character values for teenage, child and toddler-aged Sims. I also recommend “The Sims 4: Parenthood” game pack. Eco Lifestyle brings awareness to the ever-daunting issue of climate change and increases the Sims relatability even more. This pack introduces renewable and nonrenewable energy, sustainable living, crafting and community projects into “The Sims 4.” The expansion pack focuses heavily on the world’s eco-footprint and three different pollution levels can be achieved: green, neutral and industrial. The next expansion pack I recommend is “Eco Lifestyle”. This pack also introduces strays and veterinary clinics, which allows for your Sims to open a vet clinic of their own.Ī vet clinic built in Newcrest, an empty The Sims 4 world that simmers can build lots that cater to their gameplay experience. I also highly recommend the “Cats & Dogs” expansion pack, that allows your Sims to have furry friends and also opens a world called Brindleton Bay. The Seasons pack generally makes “The Sims 4” environment look more lifelike instead of simply having one stagnant weather type. The Seasons pack also includes cold and hot weather outfits in the Create-a-Sim menu, and rustic items to both build and buy. Seasons give simmers the opportunity to have all four seasons in the game that provide new activities for Sims to do like roller-skating, ice-skating, snowball fights, building snowmen and throwing water balloons. The first and most important expansion pack that all simmers should have is “The Sims 4: Seasons” pack.
EA and Origin Software hold sales for the packs at discounted prices throughout the year, excluding kits. The expansion packs are $39.99, the game packs are $19.99, the stuff packs are $9.99 and kits are $4.99.
“The Sims 4 Base game” costs $19.99 and must be purchased to use the DLCs. Out of the many, there are a few I recommend that new simmers buy and download. In March 2021, The Sims team released a new DLC category: kits. There are expansion packs, game packs and “stuff” packs. DLCs allow for specialized gameplay, build options and character customization opportunities. Maxis and EA released 4 “The Sims” games as well as additional downloadable content (DLCs) for each game that “simmers,” people who play the Sims, can buy and install. After the success of its previous games, EA released “The Sims 4” in 2014.
“The Sims” series began in 1989, but the first Sims life simulation game came out in 2000. Sul sul! “The Sims 4” is a life simulation game developed by Maxis and published by Electronic Arts (EA).
